Cronocrimenes

Directed by Nacho Vigalondo

The feature début of the director of Oscar-nominated short 7.35 en la mañana (showing in ¡Viva! 2008 Kimuak shorts programme) is a mind-bending, time-warping sci-fi thriller that has already been bought by United Artists for a US remake.

Set in Cantabria, it follows the apparently normal, mundane activities of Hector (Elejalde) whose chance sighting of a naked girl in the forest outside his home leads him on a tense and at times terrifying journey through time. Who is the man in the pink bandage? CRONOCRIMENES mixes sci-fi and old-school horror with a mystery which keeps twisting in on itself to create an entirely refreshing new genre film.
